They say the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, but expecting a different outcome. That also defines the current state of the Democratic Party, who keeps coming back to tested — and failed — policies in the hopes that no one will notice those policies don't work.
But this time, it's even worse. After weeks of hearing about the massive fraud of every social program in Minnesota, including childcare programs, New York Governor Kathy Hochul has decided what her state needs is massive taxpayer-funded fraud, too. To that end, she's announced her support for incoming New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani's plan for "universal" childcare, including its multi-billion dollar price tag.
Despite not knowing how that bill will be paid, or who will be paying it.
The answer is simple: New York taxpayers, which means you can kiss "affordability" goodbye.
According to The New York Post, Hochul plans to push for universal childcare as part of her 2026 agenda. Speaking of Mamdani, Hochul told a local radio station, "I think he is going to surprise a lot of people. Everybody — let's give him a chance."
Hochul is seeking reelection to her second term next year, and gladly said she has an "awful lot of alignment" with the Democratic socialist, including "affordability aand driving down the cost of living" in New York.
You can't do that by raising taxes, because that raises the price of everything and the cost of living goes up. But Democrats don't seem to think people feel the impact of their tax-and-spend schemes.

What could possibly go wrong? /sarc
She needs the money to fund the Democrat electoral manipulation and patronage network
New York’s childcare system receives substantial federal funding, primarily through the Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF) and Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) block grants, which support programs like the NYS Child Care Assistance Program (CCAP) for low-income families, including subsidies for providers and expansions for essential workers.
This federal money flows to the state and local districts (like NYC’s EarlyLearn) to help eligible families afford care, with state/local funds and federal COVID relief funds also contributing significantly.
How Federal Funding Works in NY Childcare:
CCDF & TANF: The main federal sources provide grants to New York, managed by the Office of Children and Family Services (OCFS).
State & Local Administration: NYS distributes these funds to local social services districts, which run programs like CCAP (vouchers).
Funding for Families: Federal funds help low-income working families pay for licensed care, legally exempt care (relatives/friends), and before/after-school programs.
COVID-19 Relief: Funds from acts like the CARES Act and American Rescue Plan also boosted childcare capacity and supported essential workers.
In Summary: Federal money is crucial for supporting childcare in New York through various subsidy programs and initiatives, making care more accessible for eligible families.

STUCK ON STUPID AND CORRUPT!
Hey New Yorkers ... as Barack said ... Elections have consequences
Apparently there’s a lot of money to be made...
Kath wants in on the BIGTIME grift.
Not only is she ugly, stupid beyond belief and a liberal lunatic, she pretends to be ....never mind. Scotty, beam me up! New Yorkers—WAKE UP.
It is disgraceful that a person as totally partisan, stupid, and reveling in evildoing could have been elected to public office. It is disgusting that the deposing of Andrew Cuomo allowed this agenda-driven witch to assume such a powerful office as governor, allowing her to do yet more harm to decent people. Unless a miracle occurs, which is doubtful in libtard NY, she will put into place an even worse program than Minnesota has to rob its taxpayers wholesale by hostile aliens.
Run by Somalians?

Any questions?
She heard there’s tons of untraceable kickback money
Sounds like Da Ho is going to try to clean up with her own little fortune.
Doubling down on stupid.
Billions of taxpayer dollars will be going towards the hundreds of nazi RATS’ “impeachments.”
Why is the federal government paying for daycare?

I guess the Trump admin will just have to cut off all Fed funding to New York state like they did for Minnesota.
